Montevidean Springtime. Finally arrived. Sunny days, flying polens, and green leaves appeared so suddenly, it was amazing. The streets are filled with people, especially weekends, Montevideans crowd the beautiful Rambla--Malecon of this city.
Although I spend my weekends in Pinar (in Canelones), in the closest nicest beach of the country, when we drive towards (Javier fixed his car, now we are mobilized, what a difference!)Pinar, we take Rambla all the way, and passing through shishi Punta Carretas, Pocitos, Punta Gorda neigborhoods of Montevideo, I watch people: they sit around and drink mate, walk their dogs or kids, or both, jog, and my favorite, already tanned older ladies sunbathing with reflective panels, croc-king their skin.
Other significant spring activities include: more asados in friend's houses, open air concerts, Mercado de Puerto full of people on saturdays, parks...in short, more people out on the streets. Now it feels like there are 1 million and some people living in this city, as in winter it felt like there were 5000!
